The best way to make a fuckton of money is to start with a shitload of money. Crony capitalism (and all capitalism devolves into crony capitalism) is rigged in favor of those with the most capital to wield its influence over others.
Cronies predate capitalism by millenia. There’s no devolving happening. It’s not like you can make a capitalism that has no cronies and then it devolves. The cronies are the people who made the capitalism in the first place
Yes and no, sometimes reforms from compromise with organised labour result in a reduction of cronyism for some time, but reforms never go far enough to stop the owning class from clawing their power back.
Oh you sweet summer child. The reforms are concessions that are agreed to between and among the cronies for the express purpose of stopping you from revolting. They slow walk the reforms together so the cronies can reposition their wealth to maximize their upside. And then they work in the next big cash cow together
Money. It rewards money.
Those who have money are the only ones deserving of getting money.
It’s kind of in the name…

True, I should clarify I meant devolving from their imaginary capitalist ideal, which they fantasize as a libertarian utopia based on pure merit.

Cringe
No shit
Literally what I said
Nothing makes money more then money
It’s why the old nobility liked the system and molded it to their needs.
